DRESS FOR AAFC PERSONNEL ATTENDING THE AVALON AIRSHOW 04-06 Mar 11 14. DDGCADETS-AF has directed that AAFC personnel attending as part of an official activity or undertaking official duties on public days are to wear Service Dress uniform. DPCUs are NOT permitted to be worn by any AAFC member regardless of the situation. 15. Cadets who have not been issued with a service dress uniform may attend in neat civilian attire providing they have been enrolled in the AAFC, they have been issued with a service number and are carrying a PH299 with them. 16. Approved civilian staff members who are active in CadetOne and have been issued with an AAFC service number may attend the air show and are to wear neat casual dress. 17. CB-AF will be providing tickets for AAFC Members, including cadets without a service dress uniform and approved civilian staff, to attend the public days at the Avalon Airshow providing they have been included on the official CadetOne nominal roll as part of the approved OA86 and that they requested tickets through the process outlines in RI 1/11. 18. Cadets and staff are reminded that acceptable standards of dress and grooming must be maintained, as they will be highly visible to the general public and members of the RAAF.
5 19. Hat Fur Felt Khaki is to be worn, including by staff, CWOFFs and CUOs, at all times except when indoors or when working inside or adjacent to a display stand or similar. Under no circumstances are any AAFC member to wear the AAFC baseball cap or any Wing or unit cap while in service dress uniform. 20. CDR-AAFC is aware that some groups have paid for their own tickets so that they do not have to wear uniform and have arranged for polo shirts for the event. These groups may wear neat civilian attire and are not to wear any item of uniform. COs are to ensure that these groups wear suitable wide brimmed head dress at all times while outdoors to ensure compliance with OH&S risks. These groups will not be provided with CB-AF funded tickets and are not able to claim for reimbursement of the cost of the tickets. 21. In the event of inclement weather, personnel are to ensure they bring suitable protection. Umbrellas of a plain design may be carried. Also, transparent, DPCU, Jungle green, AFB, or blue/grey raincoat, poncho or similar may be worn with AFB uniform.

(Use of a water bottle to maintain hydration is acceptable at any time.) 23. The Air Show area has been designated as a non-saluting zone. 24. Personnel attending on public days, in a private capacity (ie, not on an approved AAFC activity), are to wear civilian attire. 25.

The following message has been sent from AIRCDRE Harrison, DGCADETS-AF As I have indicated for some time, my tenure in this appointment ends in mid 2011. AIRCDRE Dennis Green has been promulgated as my replacement and should be in place by the end of June. Dennis retires from the PAF on 01 Apr 11 and will transfer to the Active Reserve before assuming the DGCADETS-AF appointment. He will be based in Canberra. Dennis has had a long association with the cadets and, by way of background, Dennis and I were cadets at the same time in No 2FLT Air Training Corps at Sydney Tech High. I have included his bio details below. Prior to joining the Air Force, Air Commodore Green was an Air Training Corps cadet in No 2 Flight at Sydney Technical High School. AIRCDRE Dennis Green joined the Royal Australian Air Force as a cadet at the RAAF Academy in 1973. After completing a Bachelor of Science and a Graduate Diploma of Military Aviation, he trained as a pilot, graduating in 1977 to fly C130E Hercules at No. 37 Squadron. Following training as a flying instructor, Air Commodore Green was posted to Pearce in 1981 as a flying instructor in Macchi aircraft. This was followed in 1982 by an exchange flying instructor posting with No. 14 Squadron, flying Strikemaster
6 aircraft at Ohakea, New Zealand. He returned to Australia in 1984 as a flying instructor on C130E aircraft, and held the positions of Training Flight Commander, Operations Flight Commander and Executive Officer at No. 37 Squadron. In 1988/89 Air Commodore Green completed a Master of Science at the USAF Institute of Technology, and was than posted to Force Development Aerospace as Deputy Director Capability Analysis. Command appointments followed at No. 36 Squadron, the Air Force's tactical C130H squadron from 1992 to 1994, and as Officer Commanding RAAF Base Pearce, the home of Australia's Defence Force flying training from 1995 to 1996. In 1997 Air Commodore Green completed training at the Australian College of Defence and Strategic Studies, before commencing his appointment in December 1997 as Director Joint Operations in Australian Defence Headquarters. From April 2000 to September 2002 Air Commodore Green served as the Air Attaché and Assistant Defence Attaché Washington. While in Washington he completed a Master of Arts in Strategic Studies through La Trobe University in Australia. From October 2002 to December 2004 Air Commodore Green was appointed as Commandant of the Australian Defence Force Warfare Centre. In January 2005 Air Commodore Green commenced his position as Director-General Strategy and Planning Air Force where he led the team responsible for the Air Force reshape and rebalance project. In August 2007 he moved to a position within AFHQ to work on the implementation of the reshape and re-engineering aspects for Air Force. Air Commodore Green is married to Denise and they have two sons and a daughter. I will update you once the changeover date has been determined. R.

ANNEX A TO HQAAFC RI 02/11 01 MAR 11 PO Box 1323, Kenmore QLD 4069 E-mail: cdr@aafc.org.au ALL STAFF HEADQUARTERS AUSTRALIAN AIR FORCE CADETS Office of the Commander INAPPROPIATE AND UNACCEPTABLE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN STAFF AND CADETS 1. I am writing to all AAFC staff members to seek your assistance in maintaining and communicating the expectations and obligations incumbent upon all staff members when dealing with relationships between cadets and staff members (including instructors, officers and approved civilians). This is a difficult subject and one that most people tend to avoid for fear of intruding into another s personal affairs. However, when a relationship develops between a member of staff and any cadet, irrespective of age, it is a subject we all need to face head on. Expectations 2. The underpinning rationale for what follows is that the AAFC and its staff members have an on going duty of care and trust towards all cadets irrespective of age. Their parents or guardians rightfully expect the AAFC to protect their child s wellbeing whilst they are undergoing the development and training for which we are well renowned. We, as AAFC staff, are placed in a position of trust not only by parents but also by the community and, most importantly, by the law. I cannot stress strongly enough that it is highly inappropriate to betray that trust - even inadvertently - and compromise, for personal satisfaction, the standards of behaviour and the values that all in the AAFC strive to establish and maintain. Directive 3. It is for this reason that I write to affirm that it is highly inappropriate, and unacceptable, for any AAFC staff member to conduct any form of personal relationship of an intimate nature with any cadet. The policy requirements as detailed in the Interim POLMAN Part 2, Chapter 7, paragraph 14 and 15, and my expectations, are perfectly clear as a staff member you are not to take advantage of any cadet. I would add that the relationship between cadets and staff is very much akin to that of teacher/student it operates twenty four hours a day, seven days a week there is no sign off/sign in capacity. 4. So that you all clearly understand the AAFC s position where such a relationship is suspected let me spell it out: in such a situation it is inappropriate for the focus to be centred on the cadet rather it must be and will be on the staff member who will bear the burden to resolve the conflict. 5. Some may argue that what happens out of AAFC time is personal business. Again, let me be perfectly clear, it is not. The AAFC s policies on these matters apply whether or not those involved are on duty at the time, and whether or not they are participating in a AAFC activity. If any of you have difficulty in understanding or accepting these policies, then you need to reassess your suitability and continued service in the AAFC. There cannot be, nor will there be, any exceptions.
A-2 Nil Excuse or Mitigation 6. I can see no possible excuse or mitigation that would permit an intimate staff-cadet relationship to occur. Some examples of attempted excuses that have been heard before and are NOT acceptable include: a. but the cadet consented ; b. we only act on the relationship outside of cadets ; c. the cadet s is over the age of consent, and will be terminating soon anyway ; d. there s only a year s difference in age ; and e. the relationship existed before he/she became a staff member. 7. None of these excuses are acceptable to the AAFC. In a situation where one individual is a staff member and the other is a cadet, an intimate relationship is never acceptable, no matter the background, no matter the depth or length of that intimate relationship. New Staff 8. The distinction between being a former cadet and being a new staff member can often be invisible to the staff recruit, or may seem to be unimportant. However, this change in status represents one of the great leaps forward in terms of the maturity and responsibility that a former cadet needs to demonstrate when they join the staff ranks of the AAFC. It is a difficult psychological transition and a challenge to self-awareness for an individual to appreciate that he/she is no longer a cadet but a staff member. This transition is not always immediate or successful. Your Help 9. To address this whole issue of inappropriate relationships I need the support of the more senior and experienced staff members to play an essential role in communicating the expectations of the AAFC to our less experienced staff members irrespective of rank. I need you to display courage and wisdom in conveying this message and ethos. 10. I also need our more junior staff members to understand one of the less visible, but very essential, expectations of being a AAFC staff member. Avoidance of an inappropriate relationship is a new found duty expected of, and imposed upon, you as an AAFC staff member. 11. I look to all of you to support me in the maintenance of this important and delicate ethical standard.. KEN GIVEN Group Captain (AAFC) Commander Australian Air Force Cadets 01 Feb 11
